Between people saying Obama is a Muslim and all of this coverage of the proposed faith center at Ground Zero, I am starting to think that being Muslim is a crime.
What do you all think about them building a place of worship right by where the 9/11 attacks occurred? I personally think it's a bad idea because some of our own extremists are probably going to try and bomb the place. And then some Muslim extremists are going to retaliate back. I don't think it is a safe idea at all...even though they have been meeting there for years.
Public thought in the USA seems to be that all Muslims are evil. Of course that's not true; only the extremists are the ones hurting people. And there are extremists in every religion and culture. Should we ban all white people from the South just because they COULD be KKK? Should we ban all priests from having service at schools because they COULD be child molesters? Like I said, that faith center should not be built there for safety reasons. But I think that they, in theory, have every right to build it.

Cheese is the most delicious food known to man. It goes with everything.
On another note, I move into my apartment next Wednesday (my 20th birthday) with my girlfriend Leah. And then school starts on that following Monday, the 23rd.
After two years of having to pack up and move in early for soccer, I'm used to early arrival at OWU. But that doesn't mean I like it. It'll be so nice to move into a more permanent spot and know I don't have to pack up and leave again at Thanksgiving, Christmas, spring break or summer. I hate pulling my roots up and moving.
So I guess it's time to pack...

Chopped
Where did all the time go?
Summer somehow has sped by me and here I am, midnight on August 4. Two weeks until my twentieth birthday. Two weeks until I move into my first apartment.
I hardly wanted to leave school and I am certainly ready to go back...but I feel as if I haven't made good on my summer yet. No big trips, not much partying with friends, not enough lazy days poolside...and it seems a waste to clean my room because I know I'll just be packing everything up again soon.
Wow. I don't know what happened. Am I ready for the fall? There's a lot at stake and a lot on my plate but the days just get shorter and shorter.
In the meantime, I need to relish the time I have left--Cincinnati won't be my home anymore soon.
